  | It was provided because one of the concerns that various people had

  | (and unregister) extra filters.

Oops; I took a deeper look at what you removed, and it was just the
ability to (un)register new filter names (to existing filter
functions) from userland, and not the underlying ability to
register new filters from within the kernel.

Apologies for the panic.

Luke.
